Sensor data without display plugged in

Hey guys, wondering if there's any way to get sensor data on the DK2 without having the display plugged in. With the DK1 i was able to still test orientation in the editor with just USB plugged in but with the DK2 it seems i need to have the display coming through to get anything to happen with the OVR controller.
Thanks!

    I leave my rift on direct mode and when I press play in unity the display stays off but the camera comes on and the head tracking function. I do have it plugged in via HDMI though, not sure if it works with the HDMI unplugged.

    We currently don't support tracking without a display. You could modify OVRCameraController and OVRCamera to bypass the rendering code and use extended mode to get a similar effect.
